This is my daily art blog.
I'm artist Dee Sanchez and I live and work in Alameda, New Mexico - the land of blue skies, red hills, and three unique cultures.
What a beautiful place to paint! Join me on my daily painting quest, my plein air adventures, my video logs, my "getting ready for a show" preparations, my painting tips, and I may even throw in an opinion or two...I also document my struggles with getting healthy and my crazy family life

"MILAGRO"

6"X8"

This is my daily auction painting - Milagro means miracle and I painted this from a photo I took in Taos, New Mexico last October. It was truly a miracle to me - the colors were the most briliant I had ever seen in Taos, actually anywhere. These are aspen trees in a big open field full of chamisa and sage and clouds are hiding part of the mountain tops.

"SPRING RUNOFF"

8"X10"

SOLD

This is a beautiful image of a running stream, spring foliage, and background hills.

"THE RIVER BELOW"

8"X10"

SOLD

I'm pretty sure this is a hilltop view of the Rio Grande Gorge - harder to paint than I thought.

"MAGICA II"

8"X10"

Gift

One of many paintings that I like to call "WILDS," which just means a big mass of flowers, a meadow, a bouquet, etc.

I am still not happy with the photographs of paintings I'm taking for posting on my blog - when I get the set-up fixed the way I want it, you'll know!
